  1. A very tactful quotation from you there Tom
  2. Thank You Bill, very well said
  3. Good to have you back...when you coming for that carbtune??
  4. Should I post a "Watered Down" picture of it
  5. Likely excuse
  6. :rasberry::rasberry: Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha :rasberry::rasberry:
  7. Ahhhhh let me think.....NO!
  8. We plan on being there whenever it is, pick a date and I'll put it on the calendar
  9. Potato Creek sounds like a winner to me with the 5th year annivesary coming up. I'm actually not too worried about carving a bunch of twisties. I know that a day trip south of Indianapolis has some great riding roads, Right Sybil? Kevin, Thanks for jumping in on this and if you need other help with a committee should this materialize I will be glad to help you with it in whatever capacity you deem appropriate
  10. No worries, I understand how vacations work out, great to hear of your trip and that the bike performed well
  11. BIG Tom.....Wise words???? Now come on those dont belong in the same sentence
  12. I have owned 7 Ventures, 4 1st gens and 3 2nd gens. All of them have gotten between 38 and 42 mpg depending on how bad my rightwristitis has been on any certain day. Obviously if I babied it I got better, if your getting 41 your doing pretty good.
  13. ....in the classifieds http://www.venturerider.org/classifieds/showproduct.php?product=2342
  14. Come up to Kevins (Leadwolf56) M&E on Saturday and I know someone will have a carbtune with them, you can do it right in the parking lot
  15. Great to hear your ride was a good one Mark, how did the RSV perform for you?
  16. Nice job on scoring that bike, it is a very good color combo, enjoy your new ride
  17. Chuck, As much as I would LOVE to jump on that offer, I can't, But I do have some parts for the G2 laying around here that need to move out. Let us know what the bike needs and I might be able to help that along and clear out things before I move.
  18. Muffins gettin a Harley, Muffins gettin a Harley, Muffins gettin a Harley
  19. I would be interested in seeing that, I have never heard of Yamaha ever making a trailer for behind the bikes as they dont condone it. Did you let him know about us
  20. It's really not a big deal, you would spend way more time trying to fish wires under it, than you would to remove it and place the wires exactly where you want them. Dont be apprehensive, it's really just as easy as the folks have been saying.
  21. Good to hear that you got it done yourselves, that would have been 1 hell of a shipping tab to get them across the pond and back
  22. Thats been tried, it doesn't work and the membership shot it down one it was in place. Basically all I am asking for is restraint, I have to use it here as a moderator and I expect nothing less from the members. Sometimes we just need to be reminded so our site moves smoothly
  23. Great news on the total monies I have been looking at all the pics, I still wish we would have been with the family instead, but we did raise some money (albeit small) for the Sabrina Black Foundation. Rest assured I will NOT miss St. Judes again
  24. I dont know if you have one, but a backrest is a must in my book for long days in the saddle on any Venture. A set of highway pegs too helps keep you able to move your feet around. Rick Butler is top notch and his workmanship is great, let him work your seat over and I dont think you'll regret it
  25. Ride it! As long as you keep up on your maintenance, you wont have issues. When I have had the brakes lock up on my 1st gens it was because it was the original brake fluid in it and it crystalized and plugged the return orface to the master cylinder. If you haven't replaced the fluid in your brakes make that a point to do.
